Engineering Sciences MS: Focus on Internet of Things

The Internet of Things (IoT) is the network of physical objects—devices, vehicles, buildings and other items—embedded with electronics, software, sensors, and network connectivity that enables these objects to collect and exchange data.

Engineering Sciences MS (Focus on Internet of Things)

This innovative program is designed to meet high employer demand for experts that can engineer new interactive services, acquire, fuse, and process the data collected from sensors, actuators, controllers, and other devices, and develop architectures to interconnect these elements as part of larger, more diverse systems.

Potential careers in this rapidly evolving area encompass industry sectors ranging from energy, healthcare, transportation, infrastructure, to manufacturing. Students will be trained in in a wide range of IoT technologies, architectures, and solutions applicable to different domains, and will have the opportunity to develop skills and advanced knowledge in areas such as data analytics, IoT architecture, and distributed application development.

The degree is flexible enough to allow students to further focus their interest utilizing the many elective options, and culminates in a portfolio of work, that is assess and showcases the skills acquired throughout the program. Classes will be modestly sized and emphasize best classroom practices while employing online resources to reinforce the classroom experience.
